Description

This fishing Village is at Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia near Halifax.

Peggy's Cove is a small rural community located on the eastern shore of St. Margarets Bay near Halifax and is the site of Peggys Cove Lighthouse. From its inception, the community's economy revolved around fishery. However, tourism began to overtake fishing in economic importance following the Second World War. Today, Peggy's Cove is a major tourist attraction, although its inhabitants still fish for lobster, and the community maintains a rustic undeveloped appearance.

One of the most photographed spots in the whole country, most people associate Peggy’s Cove with its lighthouse, a beacon has guided sailors and fishermen since 1868.
